DESIGNER Q&A
WITH JESSICA HOLIDAY OF HSH DESIGNS
Jessica Holmes Holiday founded her firm, HSH Designs, as a way to share her passion for design with others. For every project, Holiday makes it her mission to connect with her clients and deliver a design that turns their house into a home. We sat down with Jessica for an exclusive Designer Q&A to gain insight on how she works with her clientele — as well as other members of their design-build team — to create unforgettable spaces with local flair.
H&D: Tell us what it was like to grow up on Anna Maria Island and how you decided to get into interior design. Holiday: Growing up on Anna Maria was a dream. It is such a special place on this planet and something you really do not fully understand until you have grown up and seen the world. I got interested in design growing up with my family in the construction business and both my grandfather and great grandfather were developers. Being on job sites from a young age has helped me understand how the end result of interior design begins with a solid construction foundation. My aunt is an interior designer and I thought her job seemed so interesting. My grandmother used to come over and sew new pillows and throw them on our sofa for a “freshen up,” as she would call it. I was hooked with how such a small detail could completely transform the look of our old sofa.
